What kind of climbing do you use your mythos for?
|
I use mine for everything but OW. |
|
Got my pair about 3-4 weeks before a trips to Red Rocks so I'd have time to break them in, my Anasazis were going to kill me on Epinephrine and I was hoping for something more comfortable. I love the things. That time was jsut enough to break them in, and now I can wear them for 12 hours at a time without issue, while my toes remain curled (not a ton, but enough). |

there are also some fashion forward city folk who think they go great with jeans for daily use. Enjoy! This man is a genius |
|
mostly into and out of bed. occasionally up the stairs to start the coffee. Could do this as well with them! |

Finger cracks and slabs. |

Everything. They're the only comfortable shoe that I've found so far. I have a pair of Katakis but I still change back to my Mythos to lead at my limit. I have extremely strong feet and calves and I'm used to FiveFingers so a softer shoe works well for me. I can stand on dime width edges just fine with them. Maybe they're holding me back in a way that I can't tell, but I can go harder in them than shoes that try to kill my foot. |

I use them for small splitter sand stone cracks. I think they have a nice low profile toe to fit and they are so soft you can kind of smear them well even into a seamed out corner. All my hardest sends in Indian creek we’re in mythos on small cracks. Tc pros are much better for hand cracks imo |
|
Anytime I want my feet to be comfortable! |

The Huber brothers on Corazon and Center of the Universe climbing in Mythos. No excuses—they’re good for everything. The Hubers wore them when the free-climbed The Nose. |

The best thing about mine were how surprisingly comfortable they were for the hike down the east ledges and back along the road to our car at the meadows, despite having had them on my feet for the best part of 24 hours. They were also quite good for standing in aiders and shoving into hand cracks. However, a pair of approach shoes might have been even better for all of the above. |

cracks & big routes. They are really nice on thin cracks. Just got a pair a half size smaller than my last pair cause the last pair stretched too much and became sloppy. But with a tighter fit I don't see a lot of climbs I wouldn't do in them. Maybe some OW where I would want stiffer shoes, but I should probably just work on my OW technique instead. I also do not climb much steep sport, so idk how they do on that |
